Get ACCESSORIES Guide for Peugeot Boxer Van 2003-2013

Towing a trailer

TOWING A TRAILER, CARAVAN, BOAT, ETC...

For more information about weights,

refer to the administrative documents

(V5 registration document, ...)

Distribution of loads: distribute the load in

the trailer so that the heaviest objects are as

close as possible to the axle and the nose

weight is close to the maximum authorised

without, however, exceeding it.

Driving advice

A towed vehicle must free wheel: gearbox in

neutral.

Towing a trailer

Cooling: towing a trailer on a slope

increases the coolant temperature.

Tyres: check the tyre pressures of the

towing vehicle (see the "Identification

markings" section of chapter 9) and of

the trailer, observing the recommended

pressures.

We recommend the use of original

As the fan is electrically controlled, its

cooling capacity is not dependent on the

engine speed.

PEUGEOT towbars and their harnesses,

which have been tested and approved from

the design stage of your vehicle and that

the fitting of this equipment is entrusted to a

PEUGEOT dealer.

On the contrary, use a high gear to lower the

engine speed and reduce your speed.

Brakes: towing increases the braking

distance. Drive at a moderate speed,

change down early and brake gradually.

In all cases, pay attention to the coolant

temperature.

If this equipment is not fitted by a PEUGEOT

dealer, it is imperative that it is fitted using

the electrical pre-equipment installed at the

rear of the vehicle and in accordance with

the manufacturer's instructions.

Side wind: sensitivity to side wind is

increased. Drive smoothly and at a

moderate speed.

Good practice

In certain cases of particularly arduous

use (towing the maximum load up a steep

slope in high temperatures), the engine

automatically limits its power. In this

case, the automatic cutting off of the air

conditioning allows the engine power to be

recovered.

ABS: the system only controls the vehicle,

not the trailer.

Rear parking sensors: the system does not

operate while the vehicle is towing.

If the coolant temperature

warning lamp comes on, stop the

vehicle and switch off the engine

as soon as possible.

See the "Levels" section of chapter 7.
